Beosound 9000 MK1 & PC/MP3 Playback?

7 replies

Hi,

I have just aquired a Beosound 9000 MK1 (1997 model - Type No: 2521, Serial No: 1215****)

Connecting possibilities: Powerlink, Masterlink, Digital out and Antenna.

I was wondering if anyone has succesfully been able to play from any soundsource other than CD and Radio from this system an if so how they did it and what converters they used? 

Any answers will be much appreciated.

Isn't there an AUX-IN ?

For the 252x versions (mkI and mkII) is there softwareupdate 2.2. available.

This software update makes the BS9000 Netmusic/Netradio compatible.

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

Ok, what does that mean exactly? 

Is all MK1 BS9000 252x version, if not how do I check this? 

and how do I update the software in this? 

Hi

You don't seem to know where the label is located.

You will find it under  the keyboard of the beosound.

Thanks for the answers!

So I only need "7DIN to 3.5mm Jack" plug then, I do not need to get any software updates?

You'll need the SW update (exchaging an EPROM chip) only if you aditionally want to use a
BeoMaster5+BeoSound 5 or BeoLink PC2 = BeoPort in the the MasterLink setup TOGETHER
with your BeoSound 9000.

 Then you can control all sources from every link-room via your Beo 4/5/6 remote.

The simple "cable solution" does of course not offer any control of the "external" source.
